Chapter 283 A Sensitive Person

In the Entes family, the fifth and sixth sons each held half of the power and control.

Natalie had previously secured a project with the sixth son. Perhaps due to the relatively good cooperation, the fifth son took the initiative to extend an olive branch!

Natalie glanced at Wendy. “How are the relationships between the sons in the Entes family?”

Wendy replied, “The relationship between the fifth and sixth sons has never been good.”

Never been good?

In that case…

“Decline it.”

If the fifth and the sixth sons didn’t have a good relationship, there were only a few possibilities as to why the fifth son would approach Natalie soon after she secured a project

with the sixth son.

What if it was due to some internal dispute among these prominent families?

In the past two years, Natalie had witnessed the turbulent undercurrents between large

families.

She had skillfully avoided getting involved on many occasions.

Of course, when necessary, she could be quite firm!

Just like now.

She had already rejected an invitation from the Entes family’s fifth son once. Now that he was trying again, she would have to be even more assertive.

Wendy nodded. “Alright.”

There were files piled up like mountains on Natalie’s desk, and it was a sight she had grown

accustomed to.

At noon, she expected Lydia or Xyla to deliver her medicine. However, to Natalie’s surprise, Heather came personally.

“Aunt, why are you here?”

Natalie felt a headache coming on when she saw Heather. She quickly tried to recall if she had done something to worry the older woman this morning.

But she hadn’t!
